33 people are shot dead in South Africa every day. This week, the UN handed that country the gavel at its Arms Trade Treaty conference.
South Africa passed some of the strictest gun laws on earth. Citizens surrendered their guns under threat of prison. Then police tasked with destroying those guns sold them to street gangs.
More than 1,000 murders have been traced to those firearms, including hundreds of children.
The state took their guns and armed their killers.
And South Africa isn’t the cautionary tale at this conference. It’s presiding over it.
So I flew to Geneva and said it to their faces.
Full speech below.
This is what $100 and zero value for human life looks like in Philadelphia.
A woman walks up in broad daylight, fires at a family, and shoots a 7-month-old baby boy in the leg while screaming “F—k your baby, bitch!” as the teen mom shrieks “My baby!” The infant was sitting in a stroller. The shooter, later identified as 28-year-old Dominique Billips, then casually walked away. The baby was hit in the leg and is in stable condition. He was later discharged from the hospital. A Good Samaritan neighbor had to grab the wounded infant and rush him to the hospital because the parents FLED THE SCENE.
Why? They had outstanding warrants and were more afraid of cops than of leaving their shot 7-month-old behind. Police say it started over a $100 narcotics debt the father owed. The father was the intended target. The baby and his mother just got caught in it.
This is what happens when life is cheap and consequences are optional.
@clementinetown it's not atheists per se - it's socialism induced atheism that replaces God with the fight against the West. when you look at that from that perspective, everything else falls into place - we want free stuff, muslims are good because they also hate the West, Palestine, etc.
The ‘illiterate’ African is not only a prostitute and a pimp but she is a HUGE con artist and has everyone sucked in with her bullshit low IQ. She’s a sociopath opportunist preying on her disabled elderly victim. The judge, a female, was a typical do-gooder, bending over backwards to reduce the sentence because of ‘hardship’. The victim’s harm is secondary. 😤
Two incidents occurred in Melbourne on 17 August.
For one incident—the Sydney Swans allegations—ABC has published over 50 separate stories on its news website.
Yet on the very same day, two women in Melbourne were stabbed from behind in random attacks and hospitalised—and there is not a single story about these stabbings on the ABC website.
It’s time to defund the ABC—they don’t report the news; they peddle agendas.
@ShitpostRock I think Trump’s election broke some people’s brains and they’re caught in a temporal loop, no longer to distinguish what time they’re actually in.
